Riders replacing worn plastic jockey wheels on an 8 to 11-speed derailleur who want something that lasts.
Worn jockey wheels make shifting vague and noisy. Hope's 11 tooth jockey wheels are CNC machined from 2014 T6 aluminium in the UK and spin on stainless steel cartridge bearings with low friction seals.
Labyrinth style spacers wrap around the bearings to keep out grit and water, so they keep running smoothly for longer. The pair weighs just 23 g.
They suit 8, 9, 10 and 11-speed rear derailleurs from Shimano, SRAM and Campagnolo that use 11 tooth wheels. They won't fit SRAM derailleurs with a two-pin jockey wheel mount.

Labyrinth spacers
The spacers wrap around the bearings to keep water and grit out, so they last longer and need less maintenance.
Great for
Maybe not for
Count the teeth on your current jockey wheels and swap like for like. Hope's advice is that these fit a wide range of 8 to 11-speed Shimano, SRAM and Campagnolo derailleurs, but not SRAM mechs with a two-pin location.
Swap one at a time
Replace one jockey wheel at a time so you keep the spacers and cage orientation right, and note which is upper and lower. A drop of medium threadlock on the bolts and correct torque keeps them secure. We can check your derailleur and fit them for you.
